- This is a puppet module to edit Linux kernel params using sysctl under the running kernel using a native type/provider. It modifies both the running kernel, and optionally will persist settings in /etc/sysctl.conf
- EXAMPLE USAGE:
- # puppet resource sysctl net.ipv4.ip_local_port_range permanent=yes value='32768 61000'
- notice: /Sysctl[net.ipv4.ip_local_port_range]/value: value changed '32768 61001' to '32768 61000'
- sysctl { 'net.ipv4.ip_local_port_range':
- ensure => 'present',
- permanent => 'yes',
- value => '32768 61000',
- }
- There are some things to be aware of - namely:
- First - by default the available params are available on your platform by running sysctl -a
- Running puppet resource will give you available kernel tunables in the Puppet DSL
- By default, we use /etc/sysctl.conf - to alter the target file) use
- path => '/etc/adifferentsysctl.conf'
- To change sysctl.conf use
- permanent => yes|no
- You can stick pretty much any string in value, note for multiwords use a single space - the provider squashes multiple spaces between single values to a single space.
